Incendiarism
«/b»The alarm of fire at half-past one o'clock, was occasioned by the burning
   Of the two public school buildings at Thirteenth and G streets - the old structure known as Intermediate No. 3, of which Miss Harriet McCormick was Principal and Miss Louisa J. Rudolph, Assistant; and the building just completed, known as Primary No. 8, Miss Esther A. Stacey, Principal and Miss Sarah C. Marvin, Assistant.  The alarm was not given by the bells until the fire had attained considerable headway, although when first discovered it was just breaking out from under the steps on the west side of the old building.  It was undoubtedly the word of an incendiary - probably the one who has been endeavoring to burn churches lately.  We believe that both buildings were insured.  The Framework on the west side of J.R. Womble's dwelling on the east of the school-houses caught fire from the burning building, but was extinguished before much damage was done.
